Revision as of 07:44, 9 July 2007
PHM Oz has been working on IP and pharmaceuticals since late 2005. We hold regular internet workshops to discuss the issues and the project.
We welcome contributors to this work. If you would like to add to the website, please email us (info@phmoz.org) for a password. Please see the Website Instructions page for help on editing the website.
The project is directed to two parallel purposes. On the one hand we aim to contribute to the reform of prevailing IP regime as it affects the delivery of affordable and effective pharmaceuticals to alleviate and prevent ill health. On the other hand we aim to use the campaign as an opportunity for strenthening PHM in Australia and building a wider sense of solidarity in Australia generally for the struggle for health in L&MICs.
Goals of proposed campaign
- to contribute to reforming the global governance of pharmaceuticals development, production, regulation, and use
- to build PHM Oz and building a spirit of international solidarity in Australia, in particular in Australian PHC and PH
- builds Australian consciousness of the challenges of globalisation and health and builds a movement to press for continuing reform of this regime towards better health
Phases of proposed campaign
- Focus on Australian research patenting practices
- Possible next stages of the campaign (to be determined)
- focus on building support in Australia for the developing countries which are fighting against the imposition of ever-more restrictive patenting regimes
- focus on contributing to international movement for License of Commons strategy in research
- focus on contributing to international movement for reform of under pinning principles of patenting
Next internet workshop:
Access and development: pharmaceuticals and the developing world
Developing PHM Oz analysis and action
Tuesday 10 July, 7:30pm (Melbourne time)
To be held using Paltalk internet software: see Internet Workshops for how to participate.
Program
The workshop will follow on from our earlier workshops in February and May. How to progress the project from here? Looking forward to the advice of our (as yet) mystery experts.
